Glassblowing
Blow Your Own Glass Experiences
The Glassblowing Silo is a unique and historical space located in back of the Art Center. The four silos here that make up “The Silo District” are original to the property and were used as grain silos in the 19th/ 20th Century. Renovation on Silo 1 was completed in the fall of 2018, and the Glass Silo has been in full use ever since. We offer 20 minute Blow Your Own Glass sessions, allowing the public to get hands on experience blowing and shaping glass into items to take home, such as flowers and sun catchers. Instructor, Manda Barnes, teaches our Blow Your Own Glass Sessions, and offers workshops for absolute beginners to advanced students and aspiring glass artists.
We offer Saturday and evening sessions each month, featuring different projects. Click below to see the current sessions.
Manda Barnes and Risa Recio offer private Blow Your Own Glass sessions for groups of 5 or more. These private group sessions are perfect for family, friends, events, and team building activities for your business!
